I got a sample of the Moisture Lock leave-in conditioner and the CCG and I got fantastic results with them. Defined curls, but my hair was SOFT. First day that is - on the second day I notice that my hair is hard, like I overused protein or something. My hair is fine, so I would expect it to like protein, but I guess since it's also low-porosity it doesn't. I don't know if it was the wheat amino acids (protein I think) in the ingredients, or just all of the cones and polyquat.

I'm about to place a Curl Junkie order, so can anyone recommend a styler, maybe from there, that gives you defined, yet soft curls?

I've already tried KCCC by the way, and while I like it, it leaves my hair a bit hard. My hair is weird and I guess because of it's fine strands it gets a little hard even with me just leaving in a regular conditioner (Sauve Naturals) as a styler. It's rare for me to get soft definition like with the Quidad CCG. The texture of it was runny, not thick, so maybe that helped.
